Book 7:
5 stars
I purchased a copy of the novel Missing Florence: Amish Romance (The Amish Bonnet Sisters Book 7) by Samantha Price and this review was given freely.
Poignant containing 2 weddings, a funeral,three pregnancies, some family strife, a hint of temptation and a missed opportunity. As Joy's and Wilma's weddings draw closer, Florence misses her siblings and her busy life but finds some comfort in photos of her mother,talks she has with maternal grandmother Betty, and her warm and giving husband Carter but, she secretly prays to regain her father's orchard. Wilma's continued manipulation, Levi's strict rules and the soon to be overcrowded house place the girls on edge and making them feel trapped.
Book 8:
5 stars
I purchased a copy of the novel Their Amish Stepfather: Amish Romance (The Amish Bonnet Sisters Book 8) by Samantha Price and this review was given freely.
Conflicted with some scheming. Hope faces the dilemma of love versus community and the sisters continue to seek the counsel of the now pregnant Florence when the new year finds them without their mother in a full house with a strict schedule, a list of chores and the demand to turn all of their earnings over to their miserly, controlling, and at times verbally abusive stepfather Levi or go hungry.
Book 9:
4 stars
I purchased a copy of the novel A Baby For Florence: Amish Romance (The Amish Bonnet Sisters Book 9) by Samantha Price and this review was given freely.
Full of drama with a fair amount of negativity. this fast paced novel has recaps of prior book highlights intermixed with snippets of the low moral resulting from Levi's increasing rules; the couples and potential couples rocky romances; Cherish's sly, manipulative and sometimes rude ways as well as an unexpected accident for Florence caused by Bliss's birthday present and Wilma's spiteful personality.
Can be read alone as it contains a good recap but is best if read in sequence.
Book 10:
4 stars
I purchased a copy of the novel Amish Bliss: Amish Romance (The Amish Bonnet Sisters Book 10) by Samantha Price and this review was given freely.
Action and drama packed with a fair amount of negativity with a delivery that is at times awkward and stilled with a good degree of recapping. There are snippets from the lives of all the girl siblings including two of Cherish's schemes going awry, Florence and Carter naming baby Iris, Wilma's softening toward Florence and Carter, romances progressing for both Hope and Bliss as well as Levi and Wilma going on a trip leaving the girls unsupervised.
Can be read alone as it contains a good recap but is best if read in sequence.
Book 11:
4 stars
I purchased a copy of the novel Amish Apple Harvest: Amish Romance (The Amish Bonnet Sisters Book 11) by Samantha Price and this review was given freely.
Primarily negative but easy flowing with a cliff hanger ending in a secret revealed. This sequel contains scheming on the part of multiple family members, the negativity of having a self involved Englisher visit, Levi's sudden softening personality, the plans to reopening the Orchard's store,Wilma's escalating critical and derogatory ways, the continued questioning of the Orchard's ownership, and a pregnancy for Joy.
Can be read alone as it contains a good recap but is best if read in sequence.
Book 12:
4 stars
I purchased a copy of the novel Amish Mayhem: Amish Romance (The Amish Bonnet Sisters Book 12) by Samantha Price and this review was given freely.
Drama filled and easy flowing with a fair amount of conflict reflected by a bad newspaper article increasing increasing store traffic; Caroline's bad influence on Favor, her lying to avoid leaving, her flirty with the unmarried men in the family; Cherish's jealousy; the story of Wilma's hiding the will getting out; and Levi's heart attack.
Can be read alone as it contains a good recap but is best if read in sequence.
Book 13:
4 stars
I purchased a copy of the novel The Cost of Lies: Amish Romance (The Amish Bonnet Sisters Book 13) by Samantha Price and this review was given freely.
Fairly negative again focused on Cherish's self-centeredness,loneliness, jealousy and abrupt oftentimes negative or callous comments. It was nice to see a softening in Ada and the start of atonement/reconciliation involving Wilma, Levi and Florence. Ends with a happy scene.
As Levi recovers in the hospital after a heart attack, he urges Wilma to make things right with Florence while at the same time Ada, Florence and Cherish focus on running the orchard,business and home. Contains a brief update on all the siblings.
Can be read alone as it contains a good recap but is best if read in sequence.
Book 14:
4 stars
I purchased a copy of the novel Amish Winter of Hope: Amish Romance (The Amish Bonnet Sisters Book 14) by Samantha Price and this review was given freely.
This story contains a heavy portion of Cherish meddling, rocky personal relationships, a moment of temptation and some recap but ends on a happy note as Florence and Levi's relationship strengthens and Hope and Fairfax make up.

Missing Florence is the 7th book written by Samantha Price in her The Amish Bonnet Sisters series. We are back again visiting the Baker sisters as they are in the midst of planning two weddings. One of the weddings is Florence's step mother who of course trying to get her daughter Joy to agree to a double wedding. This character really riles me up.
Joy, however, stands firm and refuses to share her special day. Joy also request that her mother personally invite Florence to the wedding. This was a tense encounter. Florence is also told she is not welcomed at her step mother's wedding. Florence is devastated. Florence has been trying to get her hands on her mothers personal papers and when she does family secrets are revealed. There is also another surprise at the end of this story. I really enjoyed this story.
I was not given a complimentary copy of this book to read and review. I have rated this book with five stars for meeting my expectations of a wonderful story that I can highly recommend to others. I was not approached by anyone to post a favorable review.
Congratulations to Samantha Price for continuing her series with such a heartwarming story. I will be anticipating the next book in this series.

Book 7 As Good as the Rest
I enjoyed book 7 of this story as much as the previous 6. You never know what to expect from this cast of characters. It's fun following their lives and loves!

Missing Florence: Amish Romance (The Amish Bonnet Sisters Books 7), is a super addition to this series. As always Samantha Price has done an outstanding job showing how the Baker family truly needs and misses Florence.
Two weddings within days of each other, as well as a funeral and learning about a family she has never really known, is a lot for Florence to take in. She is wanted at her sister, Joy's wedding, but Wilma wants not part of her stepdaughter being in attendance at her wedding.
Florence's brothers share with her secrets about their stepmother, Wilma, that have been buried long ago with the death of their father.
Cherish insist on visiting her farm and continues to claim her dislike and annoyance for Malachi.
There is even a special "gift" for Carter.
Join the family again as we visit with the Bonnet Sisters. You will be so glad you did.
I was given an ARC for my honest opinion.

Missing Florence, another book in The Amish Bonnet Sisters Series, is a continuation of this amazing series about the Baker family. Florence is the oldest of the girls and making a life for herself, finally! She has always taken care of the family and now changes have taken place. Florence is finally where she belongs. Things are so complicated, but she is happy and in love. She is missed by her sisters, of course, and she misses them as well. She knows she has made the right decision regardless what the others in her family or community think! Florence has come a long way and deserves the happiness she now has!!
This is another must read by Samantha Price!

I have really enjoyed this series of amish romances.
Missing Florence is book 7.
The bakers are an amish family, that have certainly had their share of problems.
Florence has always been a strong character, who has supported Wilma her stepmother, especially since her father's death.
Florence is now married to an Englisher.
Marrying out of the faith is not the amish way.
Wilma is resentful and angry at Florence and does her best to keep her away from the family wedding.
Wilma will not let Florence tend her fathers old orchid,
I don't want to spoil the book. It's another great read from Isabella, and addition to the series.
Samantha has once again developed the characters into interesting people.

Secrets revealed
The drama and secrets keep on coming and appears to be leading to a dramatic ending. Earl, Florence's brother, reveals to her what happened between him and Wilma causing him to leave home and a warning about Wilma. Missing Florence has more secrets revealed, a very sad moment for Florence and Earl, new characters, a secret revealed to Carter and it appears on the horizon there is a shake up coming to the Baker home.
As with the previous books Missing Florence left me wanting to read the next book now. A must read series!

Two weddings and a funeral - not quite worthy of being a movie, but still entertaining. There has never been a family, Amish or not, quite like the Bakers, aka the Bonnet Sisters. Don’t expect this family to exhibit the qualities normally associated with the Amish. There is much complaining, many arguments, too much whining, and some deviousness always evident when dealing with this family. But Florence, having left the Amish to adopt English way of life, appears to have achieved something the others can’t accomplish: true happiness. May it continue for her! Don’t expect this series to be great literature, but do expect it to be interesting.

I laughed, I cried, I jumped up and down, I even shouted at the ereader. Each book in this series just keeps getting better.
This story introduced 2 new characters :) and we lost 1. :( How's the series going to end? Who is gonna marry next? What will happen to the orchard? I must have more.
This story will interfere with all other work, you'll want to finish it, just to see what happens next. I'm so amazed at the writing and the imagination of the author!

appropriate title
Thanks for meeting my expectations. Two weddings and a funeral and now 3 babies on the way. I’m hoping the author explores more of the Amish “separate” thing. I’m getting the impression that the Amish think they are the only ones going to heaven. Is that a valid assumption? Next title looks ominous. How bad will things get for the girls with Levi as step father?

I am so loving this series. Missing Florence is book 7 in the Amish Bonnet series. Things are really changing at home. Being Florence step mom is remarrying. This Levi is something else. Surely there mother will not marry this man. Joy will be getting married will Florence be invited to the wedding? Loved this novella . Wonderful characters well written you will just love.

Love the story!
I only gave this book a "4" rating because is was not a full story. I am enjoying the series, but a book that only takes a couple hours to read is just not enough. Then after just purchasing this book, one finds there is another book when it should have been part of this book and end. Then possibly, a new series.KimI

A good Amish series
Well the drama continues. I hope that some people can make up but it seems some characters just don't have a accepting heart. It seems as if some only care about what life brings them. But there is exciting news about 3 new babies coming in the near future. I enjoyed this book from start to finish.

Love for the story
I love the continuing adventures of the Bonnet Sisters after reading book 7 I was wondering when Florence would go missing? I had thoughts of the family kidnapping her or maybe even her brothers but none of that happened, and after reading the bookI am kind of glad. Great writing Miss Price I’m on to the next book.

It's a great book
Cant say how much I enjoy this series of books. The sisters are just so funny and interesting. I'm so excited to see what's going to happen now that 2 more are moving into the household, I have a feeling it's not going to be pretty.
